To get back on thread,
I realise that I may seem to be complaining but I do want to unfreeze my ATPL, I need 1500hrs total time and 500 Multicrew. Seen as I joined the company with an ink wet CPL at the rate i am accruing hours it will take me three years and that doesn't include waiting for the sim as I have to do a skill test. If we were busier I would unfreeze quicker.
I also understand others points of view who have the experience, 'that it is more of a life style issue'.
